Love Restores

Meanness abides
The curtain call dazzles
Express yourself to those around you
Forget that hearts are bound in truth
Do what makes sense to do
But for every choice
We make unsound
Don’t freak out when grief is found
For we mark the path our lives will take
And mold our stories by the choices we make
We hold our desires in such high esteem
That we do not help those truly in need
And it causes the beauty of a good creation
To lose its glory in translation 
But there is hope from God above
If we turn and take hold of His love 
If we seek to honor what’s best 
We will remember that all have their tests
We will extend our hands to lift them up
And not to throw them to the rough
Now, I know this too that I must pitch in
For we all have a purpose to serve within
And living life can be exciting
And not just a pain to send us hiding
Let us begin this day with praise
Love restores the best of our days
